Hello, I've been cleared and just had my pre-op appointment! I'm getting banded on May 10th and cannot wait! I've been heavy my whole life and have tried everything under the sun to lose weight and am ready to get started on this journey. Being 23 the few people i have told about the surgery are nervous I won't be happy with the restrictions and I know it won't be easy but I am just sooooo done being stuck in an unhealthy body that holds me back. Good luck everyone! One day at a time!
